cosmopolitan. 



And where else could have been found a more fitting, a more beautiful sight for so magnificent a display! 
Spacious fields, inwoven with canals and lagoons, on which float the graceful gondolas, from which rise the 
grandest and the most extensive edifices that the hand of man, guided by tlie inspiration of Genius, has ever raised. 
The sun shines not in all its journey on a scene so marvellous for beauty and magnificence. And when the 
sun has passed on into the ever-receding twilight-land each day, then this scene is even still more brilliant and 
enchanting beneath the dazzlhig splendor of countless globes of electric fire. Were there once a " Paradise 
Lost," then surely here is a " Paradise Regained." 

Not only is the World's Columbian Exposition the most magnificent display of the kind this world has 
ever seen, but it is unlike any other in the deserved prominence it gives to Woman. The progress of civiliza- 
tion is accurately marked by the progress of Woman. No other country, no other age, has seen Woman take 
so high a place among its workers with skilful hand or creators with the talent of Genius. Here she is rejire- 
sented not only in her entity as Woman, but in her unity with Man. Here is the Woman's Building, where all 
that is was created or wrought by Woman. And there are countless other phases where side by side her work, 
her thought, her skill, appears with that of her brothers, where each will be judged upon its own merits, without 
regard to the sex of the creator. The Women of the United States of America may well be proud of what is 
here displayed as representing them. The Women of the whole world may well be full of hope and courage 
when they see here the work that has been done by their sisters. " As they are, so may ye be." 

And when at last the mind begins to realize the immensity of this display, the glory and magnificence here 
brought together, the tremendous power and energy here typified and personified in the mechanical exhibits, 
the measureless wealth of mine and field here indicated by the collections of ore and the products of the labor 
of the husbandman, then will the beholder catch a glimpse of tlie vision that filled the soul of the poet as he 

sang : — 

" Columbia, Columbia, to glory arise! 
Thou Queen of the World and Child of the Skies."

WOMAN'S BUILDING. — Designed by Miss Sophia Hayden of Boston. It is 388x499 ; covers 
nearly two acres ; cost $138,000. One of the first large structures to be completed, chiefly 
because the Board of Lady Managers put the control of their department with their Presi- 
dent. Mrs. Potter Palmer, whose efforts to interest women in this department, both abroad 
and at home, deserve great credit and praise. Mrs. Palmer herself drove the last nail in this 
building. Miss Alice Rideout of San Francisco furnished the beautiful designs for statuary, 
chief of which Is "Woman as the Spirit of Civilization," at the Main Entrance.

TEXAS STATE BUILDING. — Designed by J. Riley Gordon. Cost $30,000. This beautiful 
structure is situated on the right of the North entrance to Jackson Park. The patriotism of 
the lady members of the Texas "World's Fair" commission, in undertaking to raise the 
money for this fitting representative of the "Lone Star" state, should not go unnoticed. 
They have one of the handsomest state buildings on the grounds, and may be well proud of 
their work.

CHICAGO IN 1833. — Only sixty years ago, it had only 138 residents. This illustration shows 
that old trading-post from -which has been developed the mighty modern metropolis, a city 
covering 160 square miles of territory and numbering one and one-fourth millions, while its 
commerce reaches the enormous total of $2,500,000,000 annually, — a population and a 
commerce that the mind can hardly grasp. History furnishes nothing that can compare w^ith 
it ; as no Exposition ever approached the magnificence and magnitude of the present one.
